What Students Say

Likes

The faculty is really friendly and educated
The staff here is good except for few of them all are great and labs are good
The facilities are good and the infrastructure is good but a little old

Dislikes

The exams are held very very quickly without very less gap
The teacher's are educayed but never complete the syllabus
The classrooms could have been Air conditioned.

Course Curriculum Overview

The curriculum is same as other NITs which is pretty old and oudated and could have been way better. It is not relevant for today's world and you need to develope skills on your own to land a good and high paying job

Class Size: 112Course Fees: INR 145000 per year

Internships Opportunities

The internship opportunities are good, companies like Adobe, Microsoft, AMD, Intel, and others hire students, around 20% of the students get internship. The stipend varies around 10-35k depending on the company

Placement Experience

The placements are good in NOT Raipur, around 70% of the students get placed easily and the lowest is around 4 LPA, and average around 7 LPA and highest around 65 LPA. The internship opportunities are good and around 20% get internship

Fees and Financial Aid

Tution fee for course is 145000 per year and the hostel fee is 35000. Where as there are several scholarships available based on caste, merit, and income hence one can almost study for free at NIT Raipur and college promotes scholarship

Campus Life

The campus life is boring as the gates of hostel close around 9 PM AND college gate closes at 10 PM. so there is no night life or campus life. Otherwise in day time too there are many gaurd so the campus life is dull apart from the fests

Hostel Facilities

The hostel and mess food is good but the hostels are very limited and given to only few students. In first year hostel is given on the basis of distance and percentile. And in second year hostel is alloted on the basis of CPI

Hostel Fee: INR 45000 per year

Admission

NIT Raipur has very slow paced life unlike collages in big cities and hence some may dislike it but I on a personal level love it for the simple and charming and easy going environment. There is no showy lifestyle here, and this was the reason I chose NIT raipur

Faculty

The faculty to student ratio is good and the faculty is very good. The exams are held very quickly but they are really easy and not that difficult. The questare directly asked from the PYQs and are very easy

Night Life

There is no nightlife because the college gate closes at 10 PM. This can be improved. If you want a night life so you better take a hostel outside college campus otherwise you'll be bound here and have a dull college life.

A Balanced College Experience with Great Learning Opportunities

Likes

Friendly teachers and supportive staff members
Good learning environment and helpful classmates.
Practical activities and college events are useful.

Dislikes

The college is far from the main city area.
The canteen is small and has limited seating
The garden does not have proper sitting facilities.

Placement Experience:

The college provides placement opportunities through campus recruitment drives, with companies visiting for hiring students. Placement preparation includes aptitude tests, technical interviews, coding practice, and soft-skill development. Students are also encouraged to improve their skills through projects, internships, and certifications. After completing the course, I plan to build a career in the IT sector, particularly in Al or machine learning.
